I was back at my outdoor workshop a few weeks ago for a special commission.
Not very warm in Ireland so the layers and hat are essential!

Just finished this little tester bowl as part of my @QESTcraft learning. It was engraved flat (with several slips along the way!) then pressed before being enamelled.
Thank you to @qestcraft for my scholarship. Thank you also to @artscouncilni for a SIAP towards this project

I actually don’t care which political party you represent but Please, Please, Please stop doing this. I vote because of your policies not your face. Think environmental waste and stop this now! #ElectionPosterAmnesty #FaceToFace #PolicyNotPortraits Please RT if you agree.
